Getting into the details of the fight, it is known that there already exist Ashok Gehlot and  Sachin Pilot camps in Congress. Leader of opposition Rameshwar Dudi also opposed Sachin Pilot. The tiff between Sachin Pilot and Dudi happened due to distribution of election tickets to the candidates. There are also assumptions that delay could be on deciding final face of CM from Congress. Well.. the final decision will be taken by party president Rahul Gandhi. It is expected that the list can be declared on Thursday.
